    Ok!!! Just got it setup. I removed the original pucks (feet on Pantheon) and added the Atlas spikes (pucks that came with Atlas box + spikes) onto the Pantheons but am not able to integrate the knurled knob (in case I want to rake). Have had it on now for 20 hrs or so. I’m liking the matchup...
